The company is registered as a charity with both the Charity Commission in England and Wales (1046854) and the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (SC037596). The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 and comply with the Charity's Memorandum and Artieles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice Applicable to Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1st January 2015)" The Accounts have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities applying to FRS102 rather than the version of Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. Appointment of trustees The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation (RCLCF) recognises that an effective board of trustees is essential if the charity is to succeed in achieving its objectives. The board must seek to be representative of the people with whom the charity works and must have available to it all of the knowledge and skills required to run the charity. Individual trustees must have sufficient knowledge, both of trusteeship in general and of the Foundation's activities, to enable them to carry out their role and to represent the charity at meetings and other events. Using a balance of skills and geography, trustee vacancies should be advertised; however, existing trustees and employees are encouraged to put forward names for consideration. The potential trustee will complete a skill matrix and have an induction period of three months before formal appointment by members by ordinary resolution. Trustees will serve for a three-year period before being eligible for re-election. Unless there are specific and special circumstances no trustee shall serve for more than two consecutive periods. The Chair and deputy Chair shall stand for re-election at each annual meeting. A trustee will be appointed to liaise with the Finance Director to discuss financial issues and be responsible for advising the Board of Trustees on financial matters. The charity has an indemnity provision in place for directors. Key management personnel include the senior management team. Remuneration in relation to key management is benchmarked against comparable roles and organisations and then authorised by the board of trustees. Trustee induction and training All potential trustees receive an introductory pack about the Foundation and the duties and responsibilities of a trustee. They will also have an induction program which will inelude visiting Foundation sites and meeting staff in all the core areas of work. An existing trustee will be appointed as a mentor to assist the potential trustee during the introductory period. Organisation The board of trustees administers the Foundation and comprises of eleven members that meet four times a year. The board has established four formally constituted committees, each with specific terms of reference and functions; Audit, Employment, Grants and Nominations. The final decision on all matters remains with the board. 4 Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation Trustees' Consolidated Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2016 The Finance and Audit Committee supports the Chief Executive and the Finance Director in preparing for the annual financial statements audit. The Employment Committee is responsible for approval of pay and conditions of staff and Chief Executive and resolution on health and safety issues. The Scientific Grants Committee is responsible for considering all applications for grants and making recommendations to the Board. The committee also monitors the performance of all external research activities and reports to the Board. The Nominations Committee is responsible for the recruitment and training of new trustees; this is convened ad hoc rather than as a formal committee. A Chief Executive is appointed by the trustees to be responsible for the executive management and its day to day direction in line with the strategic plan. Grant making policy The Foundation's mission is to beat lung cancer by funding innovative world-class research. Our aim through research into Early Detection and Patient Experience is to make a significant impact on lung cancer for the benefit of patients. Scientific excellence and relevance to lung cancer are the key principles which will guide the Foundation's research. The Foundation is a member of the Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC), a membership organisation of the leading medical and health research charities in the UK. The Foundation's key research objectives are: • to build the talent pool in lung cancer research of the highest quality, in the UK and the Republic of Ireland • to encourage scientific innovation • to make every effort to engage in scientific and public dialogue and encourage scientists to communicate and collaborate with each other and ensure that the results are disseminated in an easy format to the general public • to ensure that research translates into benefits for patients as quickly and effectively as possible. Awards are provided for pilot grants and project grants in universities, medical schools/teaching hospitals and research institutes within the UK and Ireland. Grants will be made in support of the research project including salaries, minor equipment and consumables costs. The Foundation will not directly employ staff on grants awarded for research projects. The Foundation will only undertake the funding of research that has been peer reviewed through its Grants Committee process. Details of how to apply for grants and scholarships, together with the relevant forms, are available by contacting our registered principal office.
